Ray Peat spent decades arguing that polyunsaturated fats destabilize thyroid function, so the diet built around his work leans on butter, coconut oil, and olive oil instead. That’s the thread running through everything below.
New here? The diet guide covers the basics. If you’d rather skip ahead, meal plans string full days together around milk, fruit, and carrot salad.
